    Adventure Game Sitcoms

    This week Anna & Paul reimagine some classic adventures as period correct TV sitcoms. Imagine Laura Bow having her own weekly whodunit series, Gabriel Knight starring in his own X-Files or shek this out, how about Leisure Suit Larry has a show right, and he lives with his mom who's like the Muppet Babies mom or wait no, she's like Howard Wolfowitz's mom, and anyway Larry keeps trying to get how would you say... his loins tended to, and it never works out kinda like how it nothing ever worked out for Al Bundy and so in the end he's always just back home with his mom. This episode, is that but like, more better. It's actually pretty listenable, you'll see, you'll all see. Mangia!

    Sequel Police: We Gave 15 Classic Adventures a Sequel

    Sequel Police: We Gave 15 Classic Adventures a Sequel

    This week Anna & Paul are the sequel police because they're talking about sequels and frankly, how, what else would we call it, this is an adventure game podcast. Okay, so we've established that policing or otherwise work regarding crime solving will not be involved in the episode, what else? Oh so, we basically go through the games that had planned sequels and briefly discuss what they could have looked like but mostly, we mostly pitch each other sequels we want and what they might have been about. Or bean about if you're Anna. And you might be! She actually, she reads these for some reason. Okay go listen this one was super fun,  Mangia!

    Loom: THAT'S What They Were Weaving?!

    Loom: THAT'S What They Were Weaving?!

    This week Anna & Paul bring you the Sierra Remake Comparison IV: This One Isn't Even Sierra. Look, you all asked us about Loom and we finally answered. We also made sense of what exactly was being weaved, all while comparing the original EGA version to the VGA and FM Towns remake. Join us as we present to you our flimsy arguments as to which is the best while Paul upsets the LucasArts fans by constantly referring to the protagonist as Bobbin Threepbare and Bobbin Threadwood, possibly by accident, frankly I'm not so sure. Mangia!

    King's Quest VI - Also the Best King's Quest (feat. Erik Elsom)

    This week Anna & Paul are joined by the magician I mean musician, Erik Elsom, the talented man behind Magic Map Studio and they are discussing King's Quest VI: Having Hair is Human. They chat about the game as if to verbally play it for you which typing that out, it's amazing anybody listens to this show. But you do! And this episode is a lot of fun, probably, if I'm honest, I'm typing this like an hour before recording. Oh man, I hope this didn't jinx it... Nah, it, it's gonna be fine. You'll see, you're about to see. Mangia!

    Sierra Remake Comparison III: Space Quest

    Sierra Remake Comparison III: Space Quest

    This week Anna & Paul Mangia! Whoops, that was a typo. See I, I didn't wanna erase last episode's mangia cos that's a whole word I'd have to type but the- doesn't matter, ok this week is part 3 of the Sierra Comparison Series™️ and it's Space Questests turn! It's the AGI EGA original vs the SCI VGA remake! And it's not really versus, it's more a comparison but like how every parent secretly has a favorite child, we definitely liked one more than the other. Maybe, who really cares, Mangia!

    This week Anna & Paul are joined by special guest Daniel Albu (Conversations with Curtis) to excavate deep into The Dig. It was actually more work to avoid saying dig deep than it was worth. Anyway, actually, that's kinda it. I mean you know the deal, they talk about the game, which in this case is The Dig, you can already see they're joined by a guest, like usual the guest is prolly the knowledgable one in the group and then something something laughter and facts*. Mangia!

Othello hello ,

Love the banter!

Thank you for an amazing podcast! You have rekindled my love for adventure games, and I can’t wait for The Phantom Fellows. Keep up the banter and all the good work mates!

JasonJarred ,

Fun & Nostalgic

This is one of my favorite podcast to listen to now! The hosts have a great level of banter / humor vs actual discussion of classic games we all know and love. The show doesn’t drag on (like a lot of podcasts can) and is very entertaining to listen to.

Thanks guys and keep them coming! 😊
